Kilkis Regional Unit, Administrative division in Central Macedonia, Greece

The Kilkis Regional Unit encompasses mountainous terrain with peaks reaching 1,874 meters and includes the extensive Axios river valley system.

The region transformed from a prefecture to a regional unit during the Kallikratis administrative reform of 2011, establishing new governance structures.

The regional unit maintains traditional Macedonian architecture in villages like Goumenissa and Paiko, reflecting centuries of local building techniques.

The A1 motorway and two railway lines connect the regional unit to Thessaloniki, providing transportation links for residents and visitors.

Lake Doirani, situated on the northern border and shared with North Macedonia, supports local fishing communities and waterfront establishments.
